Karaoké Common Man John Conlee

As the maid poured wine and we prepared to dine

I knew I was feelin' out of place

At a table as large as a river barge

And I love you written all on your face

I appreciate your hospitality but I wish that we would go

Let me drive us to McDonald's and I'll talk to you concernin' somethin' you should really know

I'm just a common man

Drive a common van

My dog ain't got a pedigree

If I have my say

It's gonna stay that way 'cos highbrowed people lose their sanity

And a common man is what I'll be

I'll take a Chevrolet just any day

So give your daddy back his Mercedes Benz

And there's some common people that I hang out with

They're my good time buddies

They're my friends

And I'd rather chugalug a mug of Budweiser beer than sip a crystal glass of wine

So won't you make your mind up to believe in me and leave this high livin' world behind

I'm just a common man

Drive a common van

My dog ain't got a pedigree

If I have my say

It's gonna stay that way 'cos highbrowed people lose their sanity

And a common man is what I'll be

Yes I'm happy just being free

And I'm happy just being me

And I hope that you will see

I'm just a common man

Drive a common van

My dog ain't got a pedigree

If I have my say

It's gonna stay that way 'cos highbrowed people lose their sanity

And a common man is what I'll be

I'm just a common man

Drive a common van

My dog ain't got a pedigree

If I have my say

It's gonna stay that way 'cos highbrowed people lose their sanity

And a common man is what I'll be
